So, I am Volcano-stuck in Rome, but I want to be in Edinburgh Camilla Send a noteboard - 18/04/2010 10:01:40 AM
Yes, it is shocking, I know. When in Rome one should probably embrace one's being-in-Romeness, but much as I hate flying I almost wish the planes would start running. As that does not look like it will happen any time soon, our best bet looks like it will be getting across Europe some other way. Now, long distance trains are full, so it looks like our best bet is to take lots and lots of shorter trains.

So. If any of you know of anywhere where we could stay for free along the way, that would be excellent. Or, you know, if you have a rich grand-uncle with his own train, that would be great, too. Or a zeppeliner.

Board-er Patrol, arrest that woman! - 18/04/2010 10:34:49 AM 725 Views
There are worse places to be stuck than Rome - 18/04/2010 10:40:29 AM 570 Views
You are really not being very sensible here. - 18/04/2010 10:48:34 AM 594 Views
Oh, I am being sensible. The wish to get home is really just a sham. - 18/04/2010 10:53:46 AM 616 Views
Can you even get Eurostar tickets anymore? - 18/04/2010 12:53:52 PM 566 Views
Yes. There are tickets on all trains on Tuesday. - 18/04/2010 04:11:49 PM 557 Views
If you can get to Amsterdam, there are ferries to Newcastle. - 18/04/2010 11:37:41 AM 694 Views
Oooh. I didn't know that. That sounds like it might be more sensible than Eurostar. - 18/04/2010 04:10:33 PM 557 Views
Here is the website for the ferry: - 18/04/2010 04:27:30 PM 879 Views
There is no room, sadly. It would have been a good idea. - 18/04/2010 04:35:41 PM 555 Views

Do you have travel insurance? Or an HSBC Advance Account? - 18/04/2010 04:38:54 PM 1644 Views
Re: Do you have travel insurance? Or an HSBC Advance Account? - 18/04/2010 04:41:44 PM 556 Views
It's nothing to do with the card you pay with. Travel insurance is a freebie with the Advance A/c. - 18/04/2010 04:50:08 PM 2188 Views
oooh - 18/04/2010 04:52:15 PM 530 Views

There's a volcano named Katla? That's awesome. - 18/04/2010 08:24:59 PM 581 Views
Well, typically, the name would refer to the dragon. - 18/04/2010 08:30:03 PM 489 Views
